An address of rare feeling gild elo- quence was delivered before the Toron- to Empire Club by Dr, J. K. Foran of Ottawa en "Thernaa D'Arcy McGee as Empire -Builder." He might, the speak- er said, speak of him as a historian, an orator •or a poet, but those were mere accidents in the life of a man, the ripples on the surface of his life -stream, that added picturesqueness perhaps and covered to a certain degree the deep, broad current underneath of prophetic statesmanship. Dr. Foran said he would only undertake to lift a corner of the .curtain which covered that other phase of his lite. McGee was a man who had changed from one -who was opposed to constitutional authority to a stout upholder of it. McGee's early life and the companionship of Duffy. Davis and O'Brien and others in the days when they were counted as rebels in Ireland was followed by his arrival years later in Canada, where he found a field for his talents, and joined in the work of confederation. In 1863, lec- turing in Toronto, he said: 'Slow does it come that a man who spent his youth in fighting that Government Should to -day be the strongest advocate of British constitutional rule in this Dominion. My answer is this; Were my country governed at the time as Can- ada is to -day, I would have been the strongest conservative constitutional advocate in Great Britain." Having spent some years In the United States, McGee could compare thpirs with the British constitution. He believed the former lacked stability, and said that Canada wanted smnething that was time -defying and liberty -im- parting, possessed of stability, andthat could be found alone in the British con- stitution. McGep •belleved that nothing better could be adopted for Canada than•the British constitution, but he succeeded finally in persuading many of his op- ponents that that was the only system whereby this country could be raised and made the polished buckle in the belt of empire that engirdled the world. We were yet too near him to truly appre- • elate his proportions; but he believed •a the historian of the future would be able to assign to him his proper place in the Valhalla of Canadian statesman- ship. His prophecy that before 1925 the Canadian west would be girdled with railways, and that the Dominion would have 20,000,000 people, was in a fair way to be fulfilled. 4 4 Mr Highest Price paid for all kinds of Logs. . 4 . 6 4 J.

C., of Vancouver, addressed the Winnipeg Canadian Club on the duty of Canada to Wolfe's grave recently, and pleaded for a national acknowledgment of the achievements of the hero of Quebec. Concluding his ad- dress Mr. Wade said: "In contemplat- ing the grave of Wolfe at the old par- ish church of St. Alphage in Greenwich one cannot but recall his marvellous bravery and brilliant generalship that planned the attack at the Anse du Fou - •'ton, which led to -the capture of Quebec and the cession of this continent to the Anglo-Saxon race. The firSt\impuise is to look around for some great monu- ment, some vast mausoleum, or, in de- fault of that, some Memorial window, brass or mural tablet, some indication of the love and sympathy or 'at the least some sign of gratitude on the part of the Canadian people. But there is nothing. The dark, mysterious crypt is there, as is the iron grating which is pointed to as indicating the exact position of the tomb. These are cold and forbidding enough, but that is all. Canada has done nothing; New Eng : - land and its lineal successors, the United States, have done nothing. Had it not heen' for the, efforts of private and unknown persons, by whom a beau- tiful, memorial window was placed in the chUreh in 1899, nearly a century and a half after the fall of Quebec, there would be nothing at St. Alphage to in- dicate that to Wolfe the Anglo-Saxon race on this continent almost owes its existence. Do not the people of Can- ada owe it to themselves, as well as to the memory. of the great Wolfe, to take some action which will fittingly express their appreciation of the heroism of the illustrious peer to whom this continent owes so much?" The Club, after hearing the address. appointed a committee to set wheels in motion towards concerted action by all sister clubs in erecting a suitable monument. . . A Parrot's Little Joke. There is hanging train the porch at a prominent down -town hotel every day a cage in. whia is 'housed a parrot; says The Terhnto News. This bird seema to take a fiendish delight in screeching at the top of his voice something that sounds like "Heli." Pedestrians a .block away, when they hear .the cry, hasten in the direction from whence it comes, with thoughts of a hundred lifferent kinds of crimes and heroic rescues fleet- ing through their brain, only to look as sheepish as can be when they ar- rive on the spot only to see a green parrot jabbering away to itself and pos- sibly seeing the joke itself. Working For the Tribe. Portuguese South Africa furnishes att excellent example of "collectivism's as it works out in a primitive society. Every year the Chiefs of the tribes send a bend of their young hien to the Transvaal to eara the liut tax for the 'whole tribe. By this arrangement the majority of the trite lives in ease, portion of their number Work underground for perhaps nine months, at the red of which tittle they return home and surretider 80 or 90 per cent. of their earnings to the chief for all.

Canada Gives Four al\ drnirals and Nonni of a Man.ol-War—Will Now Give Some Canada's gift to the British navy -- tour admirals and the name of a meat-. o'-war—are about to be supplernenttal by some handsome pieces of silver, asId a fund to supply prize money for gun. nerY. To receive these offerings the Dominion has crossed the ocean, antl her officers and men are about tp tastq the hospitalities of Caaadians. This la the battleship's second visit to our shores, her first tieing occasioned some six months ago by he death et Hon. Raymond Prefonta,ine. By His Ma- Jesty's orders the Dominion conveyed the body of the Minister of Marine from France, 'an act of courtesy that Was appreciated by every Canadian. About the Dominion. The Dominion, it is interesting to note, is one of the latest of the newer additions to the navy, She belongs to the heavieat type of .battleship afloat. Although launched in 1903. there is al - rep* planned a fighting machine that will outclass her. The Admiralty has begun the construction of a more powerful vessel, of which the Dread- nought will be the first sample. This battleship will be of 18,000 tons dis- placement, and will mount ten 12 -inch guns, instead of four, as Is the case with other vessels. But she is not completed yet. The Dominion Is smaller than the Dreadnought, her tonnage being 16,350. She shares with four sister ships the honor of being the most formidable man -o' -war floating the Union .Tack. The other four are the King Edward VIL, launched In july, 1903; the C0411- mcgmealth, named, after Australia; the Hindostan, which represents India, and the New Zealand, which bears the name of another important member if the Imperial family. It seems that it is now the practice to name vessels after portions of the Empire. This is a happy idea. Our neighbors, it will be remembered, name their vessels after the various States. A Powerful Machine. The Dominion represents the highest type of battleship ever built, and until the Dreadnought appears is the largest vessel in the navy. Her guns are the most .powerful yet constructed. They are capable of firing in one minute one projectile of 850 pounds, sixteen of 380 pounds, and twenty of 100 pounds. In pursuit of an enemy: the Dominion can fire ahead of herself four projectiles ef 850 pounds, eight of 380 pounds, and sixteen of 100 pounds. Anything she can approach within twelve miles she can throw a shell aboard of. Her speed is 18 1-2 knots an hour, and her officers and crew number 800 men. Her, total cost was over 55,500,000. The weight of metal discharged by the Dominion 1n a single round is 5,920 pounds, This is greater than that of any other British warship. Experts declare that the Dom- inion and the four other ships of her. class exemplify the new tendency of battleship designers to afford better protection to the secondary battery and to increase the calibre of the guns. The change in these regards was first tried itt the Japanese battleship MI- kasa, and in that case it must have been highly successful. Improvtd Improvements. At all events the improvement means that instead of having a large number of casements for firing purposes, there is a central battery, and that instead of having two large guns, there are eight or ten of bigger calibre than any as yet afloat. With all the mechanism appertaining to her, the Dominion is a wonderful vessel, and is one of the bul- warks of the Empire. That she should have been named alter Canada was no small honor to the Dominion. The cir- cumstance was duly emphasized at the launching on Aug. 24, 1903, when Her Royal Highness the Princess Louise performed the naming ceremony for us, and Pelee Island champaghe was used instead of the European article. It is not a little curious that the first mission of the vessel which bears the name of Canada should be to convey to his Canadian home the remains of a Cabinet Minister, and that its second important duty should be a visit to this country to receive substantial evi- dence of the interest of Canadians •in the British navy. It is a coincidence also that her captain, Charles E. Kings- mill, should be a Canadian, the son of a Toronto judge. Capt. Kingsmill en- tered the navy in 1869, and has seen • active service in the Egyptian war, for which he bears a'. medal and -the Khe- dive's star. The Colonies' Gifts. Cape Colony has given a magnificent battleship to the British Government. Australia gives a million dollars a year to the navy, New Zealand $200,000, Natal $175,000, and Newf nindland 515.- 000 besides fitting up a drill ship at a cost of $9,000. The Ancient Colony, moreover, maintains a naval reserve fOrce of 600 men. Canada gives nothing. The Son of H is° Father. 1VIr. Gerald V. White, who has been chosen by the Conservatives as candi- date for the North Renfrew seat in the House of Commons, is the second son of the late Hon. Peter White, by whose recent death the vacancy in Parliament was created. Mr. Gerald V. White was born in Pembroke in 1879 and is 27 Years of age. He is a mining engineer by profession, having graduated from McGill University, Montreal, in 1901. After graduation he spent six months in Brltlsh Columbia, and later one and one-half years in Sydney, Cape Breton, With the Dominion Iron & Steel Co. Ile returned to Pembroke three years ago on account of his father's ill health and since then has been looking after the family's interests. He is well re- garded and is looked upon as a strong candidate. Mr, White is unmarried. A Species' of Hypocrisy.
